Is this still the case:

As a US citizen, do retirees pay taxes in Thailand?

Income earned inside Thailand during retirement is the only income subject to tax, while personal income from pension, interest, or other income sources in your home country is not subject to income tax in Thailand. This creates a 100% tax-free retirement in Thailand.

Please let me know if anyone in the group is using TransferWise, or now just Wise, to transfer their money. I am planning to do, but would be good to have some feedbacks or if anyone using it especially from the security perspective. My current plan is to transfer from Switzerland to Thailand. Thanks.

I am converting to a marriage visa extension when I return to Thailand this month. I need to send the 400K baht to Thailand for my bank account which is not yet open. The rates are very favorable right now. Can I send the money to my wife's acct and then transfer it to mine when I open it or does it have to come straight from my account in the US?
